  • 2. 

    The turtle neck sweater made Allan...

    • Look very elegant.

    • Feel uncomfortable and sweaty.

    • Feel irresistible.

    Correct Answer
    A. Feel uncomfortable and sweaty.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "feel uncomfortable and sweaty." This is because turtle neck sweaters are known for their high neckline that can feel constricting and cause discomfort. Additionally, the tight fit of the sweater can make the person wearing it feel sweaty and warm. Therefore, Allan would feel uncomfortable and sweaty while wearing a turtle neck sweater.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Allan decided to wear...to go to the cinema.

    • A TommyHilfiger sweater

    • A turtle neck sweater

    • Blue jeans and a jacket

    Correct Answer
    A. A turtle neck sweater
    Explanation
    Allan decided to wear a turtle neck sweater to go to the cinema because it is a comfortable and stylish option for a casual outing. The turtle neck provides warmth and can be easily paired with other clothing items. It is also a versatile choice that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Most of the story occurs at

    • The cinema.

    • Allan´s house.

    • Their school.

    Correct Answer
    A. The cinema.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "the cinema." This is because the story is primarily set in the cinema, as indicated by the phrase "Most of the story occurs at." The other options, Allan's house and their school, are not mentioned in the given information and therefore cannot be considered as the main setting for the story.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    The main characters of the story are:

    • Orvis and Allan

    • Allan and Claudia

    • Eileen and Claudia

    • Eileen and Allan

    Correct Answer
    A. Eileen and Allan
    Explanation
    The correct answer is Eileen and Allan because the question asks for the main characters of the story, and Eileen and Allan are the only pair mentioned together. Orvis and Allan, Allan and Claudia, and Eileen and Claudia are not mentioned as pairs in the question, so they cannot be considered the main characters.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Allan waited for Eileen at...

    • Entrance of the cinema.

    • In front of the cinema.

    • Her house.

    Correct Answer
    A. In front of the cinema.
    Explanation
    Allan waited for Eileen in front of the cinema because it is the most logical and common place to wait for someone when meeting at a specific location. It is a common practice to wait in front of the cinema when meeting someone there, as it is easily identifiable and convenient for both parties. Waiting at the entrance of the cinema could also be a possible option, but "in front of the cinema" is a more specific and accurate answer. Waiting at Eileen's house is not a likely option as there is no indication in the question that Allan was supposed to meet her there.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    They went to watch a movie at...

    • 1:30 p.m.

    • 7:30 p.m.

    • 3:00 p.m.

    Correct Answer
    A. 1:30 p.m.
    Explanation
    The given answer, 1:30 p.m., is the correct answer because it is the only option that matches the time mentioned in the question. The question states that "They went to watch a movie at..." and does not provide any specific time. Therefore, the only option that matches this general statement is 1:30 p.m.
